Friends for Now

Young Prisms is a purveyor of angst-ridden badass psychedelic rock. Kanine presents Friends for Now, the debut full-length from this San Francisco based artist. For self-proclaimed slackers, Young Prisms has kept busy with releases on Mexican Summer (a sold out EP), split 7-inches with Weekend (Transparent, UK), Small Black (Big Love, Japan) and Mathemagic (Atelier Ciseaux, France). Consider this a warning issued with an inviting grin: this music will make you want to drop acid and become a recluse. Or it will make you jump up and down in a dark crowded room while your eardrums bleed. Or it will make you want to read Sartre, or graphic comic books, or maybe Hunter Thompson. And in one hundred years when people want to know what it felt like to be young on the West Coast in the early new millennium, they might just put on this record, by these rising kings (and queen) of psychedelic slackerdom.
